M	Matthew Blair on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Chris and/or Janet have been teaching both my sons either piano or guitar for the last four years. I have always found them to be very kind and courteous. They are reasonable when it comes to make up classes. They are always on time, and i am always amazed at how quickly the kids pick up the fundamentals from them. They both love going to class, and generally dont mind doing their homework. Would (and have!) recommend them to anyone.
S	SunKing2 on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I've had both teachers as an adult. I found Janet's knowledge and love for classical music infectious; I didn't think I'd find such a love for it. She can work with whatever you are working on, which I did for awhile, or guide you through pieces that seem to target areas where you need the training. There's a lot more than just the printed music, and learning about that and practicing it requires a good teacher to guide you. On guitar, I could read the notes, but only through Chris' guidance did I learn the importance of correct technique, which he emphasizes quite a lot in his classical lessons. I learned good tone and attention to detail.
M	Marcin Jakobik on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ From a young age I was thrust into the world of piano by my parents. At first it was an uphill battle, yet Janet was so patient. Eventually I jumped ahead to play pieces beyond my abilities at the time, but Janet encouraged me and has given me a big love and respect for the classical piano. In addition, Chris with his cool attitude, patience, and raw skill on the guitar is the man to go to if you want to improve your abilities on the guitar. Equally as patient, he puts in twice as much work as you do in assuring your success at the guitar. Great teachers, talented musicians. No complaints.
J	Joss Walsworth on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I have a limited musical background and I started my music lessons as a strategy to keep an ageing mind fit. Chris has been able to guide me to guitar-playing heights that I never thought would be a possibility. He displays patience and teaches the student first and the instrument second. Unlike previous guitar classes that I have attended, I look forward to my week’s class with Chris and actually feel as if I am progressing. On the odd time where my schedule conflicts with my lesson, Chris provides a make-up time when the opportunity presents itself (another student is absent). I would highly recommend Chris to aspiring guitarists of any age.
J	John Andrusek on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Chris has been teaching me classical guitar for over two years now and my experiences with him has been stellar. I have found his teaching style to be flexible, insightful and interesting. Flexible to my learning style allowing me to progress far more then I thought would have been capable of. But more importantly, he has instilled in me a love for classical guitar that will always be with. He is always professional, on time for lessons and prepared to teach. He has always given me open and honest feedback to my playing while also helping me feel like I could actually play this wonderful instrument. He has always been flexible to make up lessons. I have had my share of missed lessons due to illness and never once have I had difficulty or issues on the lessons. I have recommended Chris to all of my colleagues who are either interested in guitar lessons themselves or have children who are interested. Absolutely no doubt in my mind that their experience would be enjoyable, beneficial and instill a life long appreciation of music. If you are thinking about taking guitar lessons, I can think of no better a teacher then Chris to lead you through your journey.
F	Fraser Ronald on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My two daughters have been studying guitar for two years now and they have both learned so much and have remained enthusiastic, and a great deal of this is because of their teacher. Chris is patient and kind, with a good sense of humour and a real knack for quickly identifying problems and providing sound advice to my daughters. We have been so impressed that my wife recently enrolled as well. She is as happy as my daughters. So young or not-so-young, I highly recommend the McCourts if you are interested in studying music.
M	Michael Di Lauro on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My musical relationship with Chris & Janet McCourt spans more than ten years, starting with my son, who studied guitar with Chris and then my daughter who took piano lessons with Janet. So impressed was I with Chris & Janet's professionalism, dedication and easy, friendly style that I, seven years ago, personally began taking guitar lessons with Chris. What I learned could fill volumes. Chris not only introduced me to new music genres, but also got me to see the guitar as a peaceful escape from our all-too-hectic working life. All to say, if you're considering music lessons, I highly recommend Chris and Janet McCourt.
A	Andrew LaCroix on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Janet and Chris have been teaching our kids piano and guitar for several years and we are very pleased with their service. They are very patient with the girls which is great seeing as they teach people of all ages, not just children. The quality of the lessons is very high. We're also grateful that Janet and Chris are always willing to accommodate us when we are unable to make a scheduled lesson. Overall we are very happy with our experience and would recommend them wholeheartedly for music lessons.
